Sunny Saturday Fun

M&E had quite the fun-filled Saturday yesterday. It included a trip to the farm and some backyard fun.

No fish was safe from these three.

It was close to 90 degrees so Madeline decided to shed some clothing and ran around this way for the rest of our time at the farm. Life in the country is fine indeed!

The kiddos caught a little cat nap on the way home so they could burn the rest of their energy at home...

Needless to say, M&E slept well last night. They could barely function to get to bed because they were so tired. We are so grateful for the beautiful weather - there's nothing better than sun and water to wear out some toddlers!

As a side note, tiny baby had a great day as well. At one point, the little one squirmed with such excitement that I almost jumped out of my chair. Can you see the little one in the reflection? Not so tiny anymore!

A Game of Paddleball

Eli was running a fever yesterday so he got to hang out with me while Madeline was at school. My to-do list included a trip to Walmart, where Eli spotted a $5 "tennis" set that he thought would be lots of fun. It was.

The suction cups proved to be a little frustrating, but Madeline soon found a way around that.

I heard her say, "No, Eli, it works better like this!". She then proceeded to throw the entire paddle (with ball attached). Hilarious. The game got a little more intense after that.

It was a beautiful afternoon, but the sun was a little bright. Thankfully, M&E remembered the stylin' sunglasses they scored at their school's Spring Fling last week.
